Listen, everybody, I'm sorry for what happened earlier. I just wanted to show everyone how good my drawings were. I deleted ALL of my drawings. Sextuple-posting is bad. I know you'll all say "No" when it comes time for my Fan Games audition, but I just wanted to say I'm sorry. There's probably no Shuffle format in the games section, but I still would've loved to seen everything, but I won't.

The general consensus seems to be that if you have a reason to consecutively post constructive replies in your own thread, it's ok. I do it all the time with my "Play Game Shows in 3D" thread.
If someone was backseat moderating you (that means acting like a moderator without being a moderator), then I suggest bringing that to the attention of the actual moderators because backseat moderating is really frowned upon here.
I didn't see what went down, and I guess I won't now, but everyone makes mistakes. Whatever happened is in the past. The only way you won't get into the Fan Games section, when the time comes, is if you severely broke the trust of the forum members, and if what you said is what happened, I highly doubt that any trust has been broken here.

Thanks, GSK. I had some great drawings of the shuffle format of Millionaire, and I had some more artwork to show, but they were too big, so I Posted them one at a time... Then I got a warning about double, triple or, in my case, SEXTUPLE-posting on a thread. Because of it, I took ALL of my drawings down. I deleted them from my computer, and they can't be retrieved. |

You didn't need to delete anything. Nobody said you needed to do that. Someone did backseat moderate you and he was warned publicly about it. You seemed apologetic about it at the time but the you did it again today so I said something to you about it but never said to delete anything.
The reason we don't want people double posting is that it makes you look desperate to raise your post count to the requirement for auditioning. Current fan games members don't need to worry about that rule as much because they have nothing to aim for in terms of post counts.
If you have any further questions, PM me.

This isn't as big of a deal as you're making it out to be.
You posted on a message board without knowing about a particular multi-posting policy and were educated on it by (I assume) a moderator. That's a learning experience and not something that would land you on anyone's "hate list" for doing. The mass majority probably didn't even notice the original thread, or weren't noticeably bothered by it if they did.
Creating a new thread to repeatedly apologize, emphasize multiple times that you removed your drawings and went as far to say the issue prompted you to (for some reason) delete your drawings from your computer -- that's far more likely to draw negative attention than making a simple mistake from not knowing a rule.
If you've already given up and resigned to the mindset that you aren't going to pass an audition because of this minor incident, then it really gives the impression that you have no tolerance for criticism and aren't able to handle being challenged here. That's far more concerning than posting a few pictures without knowing the rule, and I bet it isn't true.
Stiffen up, quit feeling sorry over something ridiculously trivial, and show everyone that you're a great addition to this community.
Be awesome.

gamecrazyh I can assure you that your audition will be judged by level-headed individuals who understand the difference between a rookie mistake and a willful violation of the rules. Furthermore, you really didn't do anything that bad to begin with, so you shouldn't beat yourself up over it. When these kinds of situations happen, it's generally best for you to reach out to the staff and talk it out with us. Making a public apology thread like this rarely has the desired effect and could be taken the wrong way. Let's turn over a new leaf and focus on building trust going forward instead of dwelling on past mistakes.

As a matter of fact, right here, I'm going to post my artwork again. (I deleted them on the previous thread). Is that okay?
